[Users] extcmd removed?

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Matt,

there are two module which allows you to run external application :
    exec
    ext

extcmd was a module developed exclusively for a FOKUS project - some 
interface (via udp) messaging for a JAVA application...

are you sure you are not referring to "exec" as functionality??

regards,
bogdan
